@Wade WilsonThey could've been from another camp...but they have to be currently living and a member of Buckingham. Otherwise, they'd never be able to be handed the same Assignment.

Zoey Mansfeild






Age: 21

Gender: Female

Nationality: English

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Appearance:

Picture is for clothes only, not looks. Tank top Zoey wears will be black and she doesn't wear a hat, also doesn't wear those shoes
You can usually find Zoey wearing a black tank top and women's tan cargo trousers. She also wears a pair of black lace up boots which she stole. Her hair is usually let down to flow free.

Personality: Before the outbreak Zoey used to be an outgoing, bubbly person who would happily meet new people. Very extrovert, Zoey was the life of the party and would try anything once. She came out as Bi-sexual at 14. When she was upset she would either bottle it up or go to her girlfriend, Jenna, and it was usually sorted within a couple of days. While that side of her still exists and does sometimes come out to play, the apocalypse has brought out a much different Zoey. She became depressed after loosing her girlfriend to the infected, and shut herself off from camp. She got over her depression after a couple of months but was still quiet and closed off, a new sadness covering up what used to be a wild, happy party girl.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Group: Scavenger Group - Buckingham Camp

Role: Runner

Rank: Scavenger

General Equipment: A Glock 17 Pistol stolen from a dead police officer,
A handheld axe,
A 5 inch knife,
Some Rope,
A Torch that takes 2 AA batteries. Also has 6 AA batteries (including the two already in the torch),
She trusts Gear handler with her sleeping bag,
Black bandana to cover her face.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Background: Zoey was born in South London on the 27th October 1997 to a single mother with an brother who was a year older than her. The two grew up close on a council estate which they desperately wanted to escape from, but due to only having one parent with a small icome they found it hard. Growing up wasnt easy in such a rough place, her brother joined a gang and she found herself drinking before she was a teenager. By the time she was 14 she was smoking weed, drinking and failing her classes. Skip too year eleven at school, the final year of Zoey's GCSE's. Just like her brother before her it seemed she was destined to fail, but like a miracle, she met Jenna. A new Student from Ireland who had somehow been unfortunate enough to end up at her school. Jenna was a nice girl, smart, and everything Zoey had ever wanted. They eventually fell in love and Jenna managed to get Zoey back on track just in time for her to atleast pass. She managed to get a C in both her English and maths. For most other subjects she managed a C or a D, but somehow foundherself getting an A in (Science or Drama).
If Drama; Zoey found that with Jenna's help, and her new found concentration, that she had a love for Drama. When she got her A in Drama it helped her confidence majorly and she applied for an acting college. Based on her Drama GCSE Grade and how she just scraped in with a C in english and maths, they accepted her on the agreement that if she went off the rails like in secondary school she would be kicked out. Jenna helped her too stay grounded, thought they still partied and had fun, until she was 18 and graduated actin college. The next step was university, and with more of the governments money she managed to get into a small Drama university. A couple of years into her study, the outbreak started. Her and Jenna attempted to get to one of the camps during the early days, but on the way Jenna was bitten. She didnt tell Zoey, and when they got to the camp they were both checked but Jenna wasnt aloud in. They let Zoey inside and took Jenna to one side. To this day Zoey doesnt know if they killed her or just sent her away. This sent Zoey spiralling into depression, staying out of the way in camp and just doing her jobs. In the last month or so this has gotten better, and she is slowly returning back to the way she was.

Strengths: She is fast, nimble, agile, Is a brilliant Actress (If Not). Good with melee.

Weaknesses and Fears: Physically weak, Not the smartest, Scared to death of spiders.

Affiliates: Josh (Brother - Missing)
Ada (Mother - Dead)
Jenna (Girlfreind - Dead)

Jonas Miguel "The Loner" Soberano




"WHY DID THEY DIE WHILE I GET TO LIVE?!?!"




Age:
27

Gender:
Male

Nationality:
Filipino-Caucasian




Appearance:
Before all of the shit hit the fan, before the Toxin hit the world like a train, Jonas would've been considered a pretty handsome guy. Slightly boyish looks, wavy hair, small stubble moustache and soft brown eyes would've at least given him a second look in the streets. A lean, toned swimmer's build, strong shoulders and muscled arms. Standing at 5'10, he isn't exactly the tallest person in the room but isn't anything to snuff at. He holds quite an enthusiastic aura about him when around the rare and occasional friend, always flashing a smile and making a nerdy joke of his. He an intelligence about him, having had a scholarship course in Chemistry beforehand.

Now, living as a Scavenger, his appearance seemed a little less... alive. His shoulders drooped, his head is down and his childish antics seem to be lacking in any type of meaning. When out of the camp, he wears as comfortable of clothes as he can. He usually wears running shoes, flexible sweatpants for easy escape, any loose t-shirt he can find and a trench coat that can be folded into his bag. He keeps himself light on his feet, making sure that his shoes weighed as much as a feather for easy escapes. The sweatpants, a grey and white colour with two pockets and string, was for easy climbing and running. The trench coat was for when the days became colder and when he needed to store things outside of his bag. He dressed to survive when he is out and about, trying to get as relaxed as he could. He covers his hands with black gloves and covers the bottom half of his face with a bandana, covering his ears with a tight-fitting beanie on the colder nights. He is usually found clutching his Heckler & Koch HK417 tightly in his hands, his backpack slung over his shoulder.

Personality:
Jonas grew up in a sheltered life, living in the northernmost city in New Zealand, Whangarei. Having brought up by his mother and father as an only child, they were very protective in him and were reluctant to even send him to a public school. He isn't the type of person to fight (even post-Toxin), although his father's fear of bullying forced him to teach Jonas Taekwando, lessons that his father hid from his mother. He is a very kind soul with no real grasp on how to lie and cheat. Due to the fact that he was sheltered, he didn't really let go of some of his more childish traits, constantly worrying about travelling in the dark and staying overnight in an operation. Before the toxin, he was a bright torch for enthusiasm and happiness. And to most, he is like that in the camp. But those closest to him (who are all dead) would notice how.... fake he had become. He would make a joke to keep morale up, flash a smile to those who feel sad and laugh when there was a good joke but it didn't feel... there. It felt like he was doing those things for the sake of doing those things. And he hasn't realised that yet.

He struggles to socialise sometimes, never making any connections with anybody in the Scav group. To do so meant that he would lose a friend in an operation one day due to his inability to do his job. As a spotter, he tries to keep a distance between him and the team. That way, if he was being attacked and ravaged by some Creature in the back lines, none of them would think to even save him. It was morbid but he had seen too many people die for some heroic "save the princess" mission. His job is to keep them alive and if that meant dying for the team, he would do it. His fears of any personal connections with anyone kept him from really connecting with anyone in the camp, becoming that loner who speaks now and then.

He can't bring himself to killing other human beings (bandits and such). However, he doesn't have any qualms with killing animals (from going out hunting with his grandfather) and creatures, his travelling partners calling him "a pretty decent shot". He isn't the type to swear or get angry, consistently trying to calm the others in their group. His soft voice and calming attitude came from his role model and grandfather, a New Zealand sheep farmer that had a strange obsession with bread and an unforgettable personality. He also got his obsession of bread from him and the desire to become a baker.




Group:
Scavenger Group - Buckingham Camp

Role:
Scavenger - Sniper

Rank:
Spotter

General Equipment:
Jonas keeps packs himself relatively light, fitting a sleeping bag, his trench coat, spare clothes and a flashlight. He does carry some matches but he wants to keep his bag light enough for him to run away swiftly. He always brings his teddy bear (a secret that only Victoria knows) but other than that, there is no space spared for personal belongings. In terms of weapons, he keeps a small hatchet with him for the rare occasions when he faces his enemies up close and personal. He is quite clumsy with the thing and doesn't really know how to use it but it gives him confidence when the group needs to go through confined spaces. His real baby however, lies in the Heckler & Koch HK417. It is a gas-operated, select firing battle rifle designed to be used as a designated marksman rifle. A DMR's job is to be in that middle ground between assault rifle and sniper rifle, hence it's use by Spotters everywhere. It uses the high penetrative power and range of the 7.62x51mm NATO round whereas most rifles of it's kind uses the 5.56x41mm. His is the Recon variant with 406.4 mm standard barrel, the mid-ground between Assault and Sniper, used for easy cover fire for a team from the back without sacrificing ease of movement and range.




Background:
Jonas was born into the Soberano family, in the city of Whangarei. His life in New Zealand wasn't rough and although he was quite sheltered, he led a good childhood. His life at school was normal, he made some good friends and even had something brief with a girl but that ended very quickly. He picked the sport of swimming, training hard and fast for his parents but even that became a routine, his speed steadily increasing through the years. The only thing to brighten up his normal life was his visits to the farm and meeting his grandfather". Their first meeting didn't really go as plan. "So. Do you play rugby?" When he shook his head, his grandfather just sighed and muttered to himself. Feeling disappointed in himself and slightly sad, little Jo hopped off the tractor they were on and stared exploring. He toddled around the large vehicle before stopping before a high powered rifle.

"Gun!" He pointed at the wooden stick of death with a singular, chubby finger, shouting at the top of his lungs. His grandfather quickly ran over to him, gasping at the sight before placing a hand over his mouth and swiftly slinging his hunter's rifle over his shoulder. He knelt down on one knee, staring down at the toddler. "Okay, here's a deal. If you keep yer trap shut and don't snitch on me to yer Mum, I'll give you five bucks and a chance, when you're older, to learn how to shoot this thing right here." He gestured to the gun slung behind him with a small twinkle and then bringing out five dollars. The toddler just gaped widely before shutting his mouth quickly and grasping the five dollars with chubby fingers, toddling out of there towards the barn.

From that day on, the relationship between the two became the best of friends. When Jonas grew older, his grandfather kept his promise and taught him how to shoot a rifle. Thankfully, the boy was so excited that he didn't even think of how wrong it was to teach a child to shoot a gun until later on. The also growing fascination with bread started when his grandfather took him to the nearest town and showed him his former bakery. To the child, bread was the perfect mix of sweet and savoury and that belief had carried onto later life. The relationship between grandson and grandfather was almost inseparable.

At the age of fifteen however, the trips stopped. No one said why, no one said anything except cry. He knew what happened. He cried too.

Life was quite the blur after that point, at sixteen he gained a firearms license, practising the hunting and survival skills he picked up from his grandpa. Without a companion however, it became a boring experience but he kept at it, getting better and better at shooting moving objects day after day of training himself. School was monotonous and easy, his love life was laughable, swimming was stagnating and life at home was quite a somber affair. This all changed when he graduated, being offered a scholarship in Chemistry at a university in London

The hype of the first few days in college soon turned into monotony again. Sure the work was harder but there was nothing special happening. He made a close group of friends (no girl in sight, of course) and it stayed like this until the very last year of his university scholarship. There were rumours a new girl in town, quickly rising go to the higher echelons of the university and becoming the girl that every boy wanted. And of course, Jonas had to go ahead and meet her.

He shuffled into the library, picking out a random book and then sitting down on a seat. He took a glance towards his friend Ben, giving a small smile and a thumbs up. He simply rolled his eyes at his friend and transfixed his gaze towards the woman in front of him. It was a simple dare, some fanfiction-like story coming to life. The nerdy Asian boy asking out the blonde, popular girl. It was for free lunch, Jonas reasoned, don't be so worried. Even though, his face blushed crimson as he opened his mouth to speak, heart thumping like a raging elephant. "H-hey, uh, that's s-some n-nice, um, b-books ya h-have there." She smiled.

And a relationship straight out of a corny romance novel evolved from there. They were college sweethearts, his friends being supportive of him. He liked her and she liked him. They spent hours talking in the library and was eventually forced to get out when the cleaners came in. He showed her around the campus, finding himself at ease and relaxed around her. In those many months, it felt like he had someone who understood him. And then he started to look at the people around him

It was sneered at by the Populars, they disapproved of one of their own going out with a "nerd" like him. He was shy, always behind her whenever they walked together, hiding himself from the stares and laughing faces. She had protected him from them of course but throughout it all, he always thought he wasn't good enough. She was beautiful, courageous, popular, perfect and he was... a nerd. It wasn't like the romance novels. He never opened up from his shell, he was never "accepted". He just... stayed the same. Soon, he just faded away into the sea of faces, trying to escape from the whispers and in turn, going away from Victoria. He graduated and split from Emory, doing odd jobs here and there before deciding to move to London. He has since worked in a bakery there. It was then the Catastrophe happened

Jonas had been the first man in the bakery, quickly finishing a batch of fresh cupcakes for the morning. His obsession for cooking and baking in particular usually made him the first one into the bakery, trusted enough by the owner of the place to open the bakery in the early morning. He started to hum to himself, smiling as he took a long whiff of the sweet cupcakes. It was for the students, these cupcakes, the ones that wanted to buy something for lunch. He picked the best one out and sprinkled some more sugar on it, saving it for a nice little girl named Charlotte that always came to the bakery.

He chuckled to himself, remembering her request of "more sugar!" with a cute little pout on her face. As he calmly set down the tray of cupcakes on the counter, picking out the worst ones and began to eat them with a distasteful look on his face. Boss didn't like wastefulness so he forced his employees to eat the worst cupcakes instead of throwing them in the bin. He had no indication except for the distinct whine of a missile plummeting to the ground and his world going black. He had been inside, thankfully, so the toxin never got into his systems. He awoke a day afterwards, having been knocked unconscious by a falling metal pot, waking to a whole new world.

The sounds of gunfire was evident outside, sounds of battle was loud and clear. Jonas groaned as he picked himself up, clutching his head. Clearing out the massive headache and eventually getting used to his surroundings, he frightfully backed away from the sound of gunfire and went deeper into the bakery, coming to the backdoor. It led up to the Boss' open garden. He heard some soft shuffling noise inside. Deducing that it was just Boss lounging around in there, he walked up to the basement stairs and called out "Boss! It's your boy Jonas! Are you there mate?"

No reply came, only a loud groan in response. Becoming increasingly worried, he flipped the switch to the basement on and carefully walked down, getting near the door and knocking. He heard a louder groan, a small howl and the sound of a figure slamming against the door. "Uh, Boss? You all goods?" There was increased a slamming, a hole punctured through the flimsy wooden door, revealing a grotesque, diseased arm.

Jonas backed away quickly, letting out a quick yelp of surprise. "Yeah nah Boss, you should probably get that checked out." The groans only increased as the hand retracted before he made three more powerful slams against the door, eventually breaking it. The Kiwi gawked at the shuffling, unrecognisable form of Boss as it lunged at him. He screamed, turning around and running, going through the kitchen, quickly weaving through tables and chairs before sliding under the metal door shutter. He immediately closed it down, locking it out before huffing and puffing at the sudden rush of adrenaline. He reached for his phone only to find he dropped it in the bakery. Not that it mattered anyways. 911 was flooded with calls.

He was immediately spotted by a group of survivors and was told that the military was sending radio signals out to every frequency, calling for people to go their nearest designated "safe-zone". The group said that they'd be heading there and asked for Jonas to join. Suspicious and unsure, he declined the offer but asked where it was. As soon as they left, he took a short two minute walk to his apartment. He quickly packed as many supplies he needed though also taking things he wouldn't need such as his phone and charger, earphones, his teddy bear and his laptop. He shoved everything into his bag and used a map to make his way towards the safe zone.

The Filipino weaved through the blockade of crashed motor vehicles to cross the street, sometimes having to run over cars to get through. The gunfire was louder and the screams only intensified. This pushed him to face the soldier dressed in green camouflage, standing in front of the designated zone. He could've been younger than Jonas himself and was already dealing with a disaster like this? He only shook his head and snuggled himself further in his coat, trying to ignore the sound of screams behind him. The so-called "safe zone" was the ancient, large local library, turned into some "fortress" with soldiers armed with high-powered assault rifles walking through the masses. He scanned his eyes over the crowd before shaking his head, making a go for the stairs. Of one of those "things" were here, it would be a slaughter. He made his way onto the rooftop only to be stopped by another soldier in green, wearing an intimidating gas mask.

"What do you think you're doing here?" Although his voice sounded deep and macho, carrying a deadly HK417, his hands were shaking with nervousness. Jonas stared up at the soldier with a curious expression. "Well, I'm not one of those 'things' if that's what you're asking."

The soldier aggressively shook his head before swiftly raising his gun to Jonas' head, clambering a round with a shaky hand. "Don't fucking lie with me, you infected piece of shit! Show your fucking bite mark! Huh bitch! Let me fucking kill you like I did my friend, huh? Let your brains splatter on the wall, is that what you fucking want, you piece of horse cock!?" The crazed man shouted at the top of his lungs shouting insults at the 27 year old man's head. Meanwhile, all his would-be-victim could do was stare the at barrel with wide eyes, heart beating a hundred miles an hour. His only thoughts were 'Oh god, I'm going to get gunned down by some raving lunatic.'

His fists clenched, tears forming in his eyes. He needed a way out of the situation. His gaze went downwards, at the soldier's wide open legs. He kicked hard. The soldier dropped down on his knees, dropping his gun and clutching his gonads. Jonas lunged to pick up the rifle and then hit his opponent's head with a quick snap with the butt of the gun, knocking him out in the end. He heard some more gunfire, some moving downstairs. He heard the loud screams cut short by the repetitive bang of the assault rifles. He nervously fumbled with the gun before deciding to rummage through the soldier's things, repeatedly saying sorry over and over again. Getting a couple of magazines, he sprinted towards a ladder leading down to one of the back alleyways and escaped.

He ran away from the library and eventually confronted a group of wanderers heading to the same "safe-zone". Warning them about the fact that the library was overrun, they thanked him and wanted him to come with them to their own "camp". Along the way, they told him about the initial chaos caused by the bombs that dropped, presumably by one of those irritable terrorist groups. The group came together after their own designated "safe-zone" was overrun by a horde of Creatures and was heading for a camp in Buckingham Palace.

Life in camp wasn't exactly spectacular for Jonas. Immediately enlisting on the Scavenger Group to take his mind off the apocalypse, he was one of the rare spotters who haven't been killed by some Leaper surprising him from the back. He can't believe the fact that he's still alive after so many operations out in London. A small part of him believes that this is all a cruel, long nightmare. The one with hope. But Jo pushes all that down and focuses on his job. He doesn't really interact with anyone and is a bit of a pariah in the camp. He is lonely and sinks into depression more and more everyday...

I like it a lot, though there are a few minor problemos that aren't exactly important, but are small details...

I don't think most of the ARs that are similar to the SA-80 Group, which includes your weapon, were technically designed for expert accuracy. Because of the two Sharpshooter Rifles used, unless used in single shots, they were described to spread in urban environments to injury more than one enemy, rather than kill one. That's Britain's military strategy, most of the time, and such inaccurate designs have also been modified on Modern Apache Longbows too. Anyhow, single, Semi-automatic shots will be accurate. This isn't a problem you should be concerned about, but it'll make for a good fact!

Love it though, I'll get it roooooight into the CS Tab

Jonas keeps packs himself relatively light, fitting a sleeping bag, his trench coat, spare clothes and a flashlight. He does carry some matches but he wants to keep his bag light enough for him to run away swiftly. He always brings his teddy bear (a secret that only Victoria knows) but other than that, there is no space spared for personal belongings. In terms of weapons, he keeps a small hatchet with him for the rare occasions when he faces his enemies up close and personal. He is quite clumsy with the thing and doesn't really know how to use it but it gives him confidence when the group needs to go through confined spaces. His real baby however, lies in the Heckler & Koch HK417. It is a gas-operated, select firing battle rifle designed to be used as a designated marksman rifle. A DMR's job is to be in that middle ground between assault rifle and sniper rifle, hence it's use by Spotters everywhere. It uses the high penetrative power and range of the 7.62x51mm NATO round whereas most rifles of it's kind uses the 5.56x41mm. His is the Recon variant with 406.4 mm standard barrel, the mid-ground between Assault and Sniper, used for easy cover fire for a team from the back without sacrificing ease of movement and range.




Background:
Jonas was born into the Soberano family, in the city of Whangarei. His life in New Zealand wasn't rough and although he was quite sheltered, he led a good childhood. His life at school was normal, he made some good friends and even had something brief with a girl but that ended very quickly. He picked the sport of swimming, training hard and fast for his parents but even that became a routine, his speed steadily increasing through the years. The only thing to brighten up his normal life was his visits to the farm and meeting his grandfather". Their first meeting didn't really go as plan. "So. Do you play rugby?" When he shook his head, his grandfather just sighed and muttered to himself. Feeling disappointed in himself and slightly sad, little Jo hopped off the tractor they were on and stared exploring. He toddled around the large vehicle before stopping before a high powered rifle.

"Gun!" He pointed at the wooden stick of death with a singular, chubby finger, shouting at the top of his lungs. His grandfather quickly ran over to him, gasping at the sight before placing a hand over his mouth and swiftly slinging his hunter's rifle over his shoulder. He knelt down on one knee, staring down at the toddler. "Okay, here's a deal. If you keep yer trap shut and don't snitch on me to yer Mum, I'll give you five bucks and a chance, when you're older, to learn how to shoot this thing right here." He gestured to the gun slung behind him with a small twinkle and then bringing out five dollars. The toddler just gaped widely before shutting his mouth quickly and grasping the five dollars with chubby fingers, toddling out of there towards the barn.

From that day on, the relationship between the two became the best of friends. When Jonas grew older, his grandfather kept his promise and taught him how to shoot a rifle. Thankfully, the boy was so excited that he didn't even think of how wrong it was to teach a child to shoot a gun until later on. The also growing fascination with bread started when his grandfather took him to the nearest town and showed him his former bakery. To the child, bread was the perfect mix of sweet and savoury and that belief had carried onto later life. The relationship between grandson and grandfather was almost inseparable.

At the age of fifteen however, the trips stopped. No one said why, no one said anything except cry. He knew what happened. He cried too.

Life was quite the blur after that point, at sixteen he gained a firearms license, practising the hunting and survival skills he picked up from his grandpa. Without a companion however, it became a boring experience but he kept at it, getting better and better at shooting moving objects day after day of training himself. School was monotonous and easy, his love life was laughable, swimming was stagnating and life at home was quite a somber affair. This all changed when he graduated, being offered a scholarship in Chemistry at a university in London

The hype of the first few days in college soon turned into monotony again. Sure the work was harder but there was nothing special happening. He made a close group of friends (no girl in sight, of course) and it stayed like this until the very last year of his university scholarship. There were rumours a new girl in town, quickly rising go to the higher echelons of the university and becoming the girl that every boy wanted. And of course, Jonas had to go ahead and meet her.

He shuffled into the library, picking out a random book and then sitting down on a seat. He took a glance towards his friend Ben, giving a small smile and a thumbs up. He simply rolled his eyes at his friend and transfixed his gaze towards the woman in front of him. It was a simple dare, some fanfiction-like story coming to life. The nerdy Asian boy asking out the blonde, popular girl. It was for free lunch, Jonas reasoned, don't be so worried. Even though, his face blushed crimson as he opened his mouth to speak, heart thumping like a raging elephant. "H-hey, uh, that's s-some n-nice, um, b-books ya h-have there." She smiled.

And a relationship straight out of a corny romance novel evolved from there. They were college sweethearts, his friends being supportive of him. He liked her and she liked him. They spent hours talking in the library and was eventually forced to get out when the cleaners came in. He showed her around the campus, finding himself at ease and relaxed around her. In those many months, it felt like he had someone who understood him. And then he started to look at the people around him

It was sneered at by the Populars, they disapproved of one of their own going out with a "nerd" like him. He was shy, always behind her whenever they walked together, hiding himself from the stares and laughing faces. She had protected him from them of course but throughout it all, he always thought he wasn't good enough. She was beautiful, courageous, popular, perfect and he was... a nerd. It wasn't like the romance novels. He never opened up from his shell, he was never "accepted". He just... stayed the same. Soon, he just faded away into the sea of faces, trying to escape from the whispers and in turn, going away from Victoria. He graduated and split from Emory, doing odd jobs here and there before deciding to move to London. He has since worked in a bakery there. It was then the Catastrophe happened

Jonas had been the first man in the bakery, quickly finishing a batch of fresh cupcakes for the morning. His obsession for cooking and baking in particular usually made him the first one into the bakery, trusted enough by the owner of the place to open the bakery in the early morning. He started to hum to himself, smiling as he took a long whiff of the sweet cupcakes. It was for the students, these cupcakes, the ones that wanted to buy something for lunch. He picked the best one out and sprinkled some more sugar on it, saving it for a nice little girl named Charlotte that always came to the bakery.

He chuckled to himself, remembering her request of "more sugar!" with a cute little pout on her face. As he calmly set down the tray of cupcakes on the counter, picking out the worst ones and began to eat them with a distasteful look on his face. Boss didn't like wastefulness so he forced his employees to eat the worst cupcakes instead of throwing them in the bin. He had no indication except for the distinct whine of a missile plummeting to the ground and his world going black. He had been inside, thankfully, so the toxin never got into his systems. He awoke a day afterwards, having been knocked unconscious by a falling metal pot, waking to a whole new world.

The sounds of gunfire was evident outside, sounds of battle was loud and clear. Jonas groaned as he picked himself up, clutching his head. Clearing out the massive headache and eventually getting used to his surroundings, he frightfully backed away from the sound of gunfire and went deeper into the bakery, coming to the backdoor. It led up to the Boss' open garden. He heard some soft shuffling noise inside. Deducing that it was just Boss lounging around in there, he walked up to the basement stairs and called out "Boss! It's your boy Jonas! Are you there mate?"

No reply came, only a loud groan in response. Becoming increasingly worried, he flipped the switch to the basement on and carefully walked down, getting near the door and knocking. He heard a louder groan, a small howl and the sound of a figure slamming against the door. "Uh, Boss? You all goods?" There was increased a slamming, a hole punctured through the flimsy wooden door, revealing a grotesque, diseased arm.

Jonas backed away quickly, letting out a quick yelp of surprise. "Yeah nah Boss, you should probably get that checked out." The groans only increased as the hand retracted before he made three more powerful slams against the door, eventually breaking it. The Kiwi gawked at the shuffling, unrecognisable form of Boss as it lunged at him. He screamed, turning around and running, going through the kitchen, quickly weaving through tables and chairs before sliding under the metal door shutter. He immediately closed it down, locking it out before huffing and puffing at the sudden rush of adrenaline. He reached for his phone only to find he dropped it in the bakery. Not that it mattered anyways. 911 was flooded with calls.

He was immediately spotted by a group of survivors and was told that the military was sending radio signals out to every frequency, calling for people to go their nearest designated "safe-zone". The group said that they'd be heading there and asked for Jonas to join. Suspicious and unsure, he declined the offer but asked where it was. As soon as they left, he took a short two minute walk to his apartment. He quickly packed as many supplies he needed though also taking things he wouldn't need such as his phone and charger, earphones, his teddy bear and his laptop. He shoved everything into his bag and used a map to make his way towards the safe zone.

The Filipino weaved through the blockade of crashed motor vehicles to cross the street, sometimes having to run over cars to get through. The gunfire was louder and the screams only intensified. This pushed him to face the soldier dressed in green camouflage, standing in front of the designated zone. He could've been younger than Jonas himself and was already dealing with a disaster like this? He only shook his head and snuggled himself further in his coat, trying to ignore the sound of screams behind him. The so-called "safe zone" was the ancient, large local library, turned into some "fortress" with soldiers armed with high-powered assault rifles walking through the masses. He scanned his eyes over the crowd before shaking his head, making a go for the stairs. Of one of those "things" were here, it would be a slaughter. He made his way onto the rooftop only to be stopped by another soldier in green, wearing an intimidating gas mask.

"What do you think you're doing here?" Although his voice sounded deep and macho, carrying a deadly HK417, his hands were shaking with nervousness. Jonas stared up at the soldier with a curious expression. "Well, I'm not one of those 'things' if that's what you're asking."

The soldier aggressively shook his head before swiftly raising his gun to Jonas' head, clambering a round with a shaky hand. "Don't fucking lie with me, you infected piece of shit! Show your fucking bite mark! Huh bitch! Let me fucking kill you like I did my friend, huh? Let your brains splatter on the wall, is that what you fucking want, you piece of horse cock!?" The crazed man shouted at the top of his lungs shouting insults at the 27 year old man's head. Meanwhile, all his would-be-victim could do was stare the at barrel with wide eyes, heart beating a hundred miles an hour. His only thoughts were 'Oh god, I'm going to get gunned down by some raving lunatic.'

His fists clenched, tears forming in his eyes. He needed a way out of the situation. His gaze went downwards, at the soldier's wide open legs. He kicked hard. The soldier dropped down on his knees, dropping his gun and clutching his gonads. Jonas lunged to pick up the rifle and then hit his opponent's head with a quick snap with the butt of the gun, knocking him out in the end. He heard some more gunfire, some moving downstairs. He heard the loud screams cut short by the repetitive bang of the assault rifles. He nervously fumbled with the gun before deciding to rummage through the soldier's things, repeatedly saying sorry over and over again. Getting a couple of magazines, he sprinted towards a ladder leading down to one of the back alleyways and escaped.

He ran away from the library and eventually confronted a group of wanderers heading to the same "safe-zone". Warning them about the fact that the library was overrun, they thanked him and wanted him to come with them to their own "camp". Along the way, they told him about the initial chaos caused by the bombs that dropped, presumably by one of those irritable terrorist groups. The group came together after their own designated "safe-zone" was overrun by a horde of Creatures and was heading for a camp in Buckingham Palace.

Life in camp wasn't exactly spectacular for Jonas. Immediately enlisting on the Scavenger Group to take his mind off the apocalypse, he was one of the rare spotters who haven't been killed by some Leaper surprising him from the back. He can't believe the fact that he's still alive after so many operations out in London. A small part of him believes that this is all a cruel, long nightmare. The one with hope. But Jo pushes all that down and focuses on his job. He doesn't really interact with anyone and is a bit of a pariah in the camp. He is lonely and sinks into depression more and more everyday...

In the Character Tab, I'm going to be creating a Team Roster, full of all the NPCs and Others that can be used as a reference. They'll just have the Characters names and Roles, not their CS's or any other shiz like that.
